The Largest Farm in the World.

In the extreme southwest corner of
Louisiana lies the largest producing farm
in the world Itruns 100 miles north and
south and twenty five miles east and west,
and is owned and operated by q syndicate
Of northern capitalists. Their general
manager, J. 3. Watkins, gives an inter
esting account Of this gigantic plantation,
which throws the great Dalrymple farm
of Dakota into the shade completely.
He was coTnered by reporter st the ST.
James hotel last night and asked to give
the particulars OF his gigantic enterprise.
1.-THE million and e half acres OF land in
our tract Mr. Watkins said, twas pur-
chased in 1888 from the safe of Louisiana
and from the United States government.
At that time it was a vast grazing land
for the cattle of the few dealers of the
neiChborhood. When took possession l
found over so 600 head Of half wild horses
and cattle. Ny first work was to divide
the immense tract into convenient pas
lures, establishing stations on ranches
every six miles. The fencing alone cost
in the neigh borhOod of so, coo. The land
found to be best adapted to rice, sugar,
corn and cotton.
'All cur cultivating, ditching, etc, IS
done by steam power. We take q tract,
say half mile wide for instance, and
place an engine at each side These en-
gines are portable and operate IL cable
to four plows, and under this
we are enabled to pillow thirty
acres a day with only the labor of three
men. Our narrowing, planting and other
is done i'll like manner In
fact there is not draught horse on the
entire place. We have, of course, horses
for the heTders OF cattle, of which we now
have 16, eco head. The Southern Pacific
railroad runs fer thirty-six miles through
our farm. We have three steamboats,
operating on the waters Of our OWE estate,
upon which there are 800 miles of navi-
gable waters. We have an ice factory,
bank, slipyard and rice mill. Mis-
